Calcifying zooplankton standing stocks and in the North Pacific from the R/V Kilo Moana cruise KM1712

DOI

This dataset compiles the standing stocks (ind/m³), the integrated standing stocks (ind/m²) and the integrated CaCO3 standing stocks (mg/m²) for three groups of zooplanktonic calcifying organisms: pteropods, heteropods and foraminifers. The organisms were collected by oblique towing (Ø 0.5 m, 90 μm mesh size, SeaGear mechanical flowmeter) in the North Pacific between Hawaii and the Gulf of Alaska during the R/V Kilo Moana cruise KM1712 in August 2017. The sampling strategy was designed to capture an integrated sample of all foraminifers, pteropods and heteropods from juveniles to adults living throughout the upper water column. Pteropods and heteropods were quantified and shell diameter measured using a Leica Z16 AP0 binocular light microscope at 20-100x. Pteropods and heteropods were identified and grouped respectively in three (Cavoliniidae, Cymbuliidae, Limacinidae) and two (Atlantidae, Carinidae) families. All Foraminifera were wet picked from the sample splits, divided into groups greater and less than 125 µm, counted, and weighed with a high precision microbalance.

Jess F. Adkins and William M. Berelson were chief scientists of the Kilo Moana cruise KM1712. Patrizia Ziveri and William R. Gray designed the sampling strategy, measured the Foraminifera standing stocks and the Foraminifera CaCO3 standing stocks. Clara Mano and Griselda Anglada-Ortiz measured the Pteropoda and Pterotracheoidea standing stocks and the Pteropoda and Pterotracheoidea CaCO3 standing stocks.
